Angels Among Us

I was walkin’ home from school on a cold winter day
Took a shortcut through the woods, and I lost my way
It was gettin’ late, and I was scared and alone.

But then a kind old man took my hand and led me home
Mama couldn’t see him, but he was standin’ there
And I knew in my heart, he was the answer to my prayers.

Oh I believe there are angels among us
Sent down to us from somewhere up above
They come to you and me in our darkest hours.

To show us how to live, to teach us how to give
To guide us with the light of love.

(Alabama, 1993)

Introduction. Our Heavenly Father sends His angels. Almighty God’s messengers bring us tidings of hope, peace and His love.

Scripture Readings: Are they not all ministering spirits sent out to serve for the sake of those who are to inherit salvation? (Hebrews 1:14, ESV)

For He will command His angels concerning you
to guard you in all your ways. (Psalm 91:11, ESV)

He will command His angels concerning you,
to guard you. (Luke 4:10, ESV)

Our Father, God commands His angels to protect and to serve. All His beloved and faithful people. These precious and obedient angelic encounters occur in our world still. Some people are aware. Others have no idea. That they have spoken and been blessed by God’s beautiful angels.

Angels are sent by our Father to comfort and to minister all His faithful believers. Have you ever witnessed? Have you at the bedside. Been privileged to be in the presence of an angel. As a family member was guided Home by her angel. As you sat there, at her bedside. You were surely in the presence of an angel. Doing the bidding of His Almighty God.

During such few and such priceless encounters. We are comforted and reassured through our faith in God’s promise and His love. Even though God’s angel we could not see. We felt and could see the peace given to His beloved. For on her face and in her eyes. Not a hint of fear. Just the simple pleasure of being guided Home to her Heavenly Father.

Scripture Reading: Listen, my beloved brothers, has not God chosen those who are poor in the world to be rich in faith and heirs of the Kingdom, which He has promised to those who love Him? (James 2:5, ESV)

We were witnessing a time where Almighty God. Sent His angel. To hold the hand of His beloved believer. God’s obedient angel holding her hand and taking her Home. Her Father waiting patiently there for her. Almighty God standing there, at the gates of His Heavenly Kingdom. With His arms outstretched. Welcoming her Home.

Almighty God’s messengers. Sent by God to protect, to comfort and to serve. All His faithful believers.

Our response to Almighty God. For our Father’s provision to us. For His protection and His comfort, His angels. We offer to God our worship and our thanksgiving.

God the Creator of all there is and all there ever will be. Also created His Heavenly angels. Immortal and spiritual beings living alongside God in Heaven. Angels living in Heaven carrying out God’s bidding and His Holy purpose. All God’s Heavenly angels worshiping God. Around His Holy throne, throughout eternity.

Scripture Reading: And all the angels were standing around the throne and around the elders and the four living creatures, and they fell on their faces before the throne and worshiped God, saying, “Amen! Blessing and glory and wisdom and thanksgiving and honor and power and might be to our God forever and ever! Amen.” (Revelation 7:11–12, ESV)

Worshiping and praising God. As do His Heavenly Angels. With true and constant thanksgiving.

You and I have a glorious example. On how to truly celebrate our God’s Holiness. On how we should appreciate and acknowledge God’s pure and sweet love. Almighty God’s closest and most powerful angels — the seraphim.

The seraphim are the closest angels to God. They focus on praising and worshiping God for who He is and what He does, and they spend most of their time directly in God’s presence in heaven. (Whitney Hopler, Learn Religions Blog)

Let us join with Almighty God’s seraphim angels. Let us celebrate God’s supreme Holiness. As we experience and we walk in God’s pure and sweet love. You and I sing along with His angels. God’s praise. As we go about our daily chores. We hum our favorite hymn. Meaning, truly meaning each word. Every verse hummed with all the love for God we hold in our hearts.

As we meet and we greet family, friends and strangers. We speak of the love we hold for our Heavenly Father. You and I share to all, the love we have for God. Our hearts literally out shine the sun. With God’s love. We share His love with all those we care for.

Scripture Reading: Beloved, let us love one another, for love is from God, and whoever loves has been born of God and knows God. Anyone who does not love does not know God, because God is love. (1 John 4:7–8, ESV)

As we wander in God’s wonderland. We realize always. The whole world is filled with the glory and the wonder of its creator. Once more. Our voices, we raise in praise and with thanksgiving. For the beauty and the glory that surrounds and comforts us. The compassion. The love for our God spills from our lips in our prayers of worship. And in our songs of praise, constantly.

Scripture Reading: Let Everything Praise the Lord

Praise the Lord!

Praise God in His sanctuary;

praise Him in His mighty heavens!

Praise Him for His mighty deeds;

praise Him according to His excellent greatness! (Psalm 150:1–2, ESV)

Almighty God is a God beyond wonder. God created His angels to comfort, to protect and to serve. All His faithful and committed believers.

We raise our voices and our hearts. In praise and in worship. With thanksgiving we pray to our Heavenly Father.

If God touched your heart,

please highlight your favorite passages

Thank you.
